High Noon (Do Not Forsake Me)

High Noon

Do not forsake me, oh, my darling

On this, our wedding day.

Do not forsake me, oh, my darling

Wait; wait alone.

I do not know what fate awaits me.

I only know I must be brave.

And I must face a man who hates me,

Or lie a coward, a craven coward;

Or lie a coward in my grave.

Oh, to be torn twixt love an duty.

Sposing I lose my fair-haired beauty.

Look at that big hand move along,

Nearing high noon.

He made a vow while in states prison:

Vowed it would be my life for his an

I'm not afraid of death but, oh, what shall I do,

If you leave me?

Do not forsake me, oh, my darling

You made that promise as a bride.

Do not forsake me, oh, my darling

Although you're grieving don't think of leaving

Now that I need you by my side.

Wait along, Wait along.

Wait along....
